The shoes are designed to detect the health of body organs through different acupoints, which are combined with artificial intelligence based on plantar reflex acupoints. The whole body of the shoe is streamlined through 3D printing. The sole mimics the form of human acupoints and smart chips are inserted into the heel, attempting to bridge the gap between traditional Chinese medicine and artificial intelligence. It tries to change the relationship between shoes and body from "thing and creature" to "creature and creature".
